    Brexiteers, in my experience, are very much in favour of silly nonsensical laws, just different ones from the UK, like:

    • Demanding Wine be sold in Pints.
    • Laws about what flags you're allowed to fly.
    • Laws about what language you're allowed to have private conversations in.
    • Laws about what you are allowed to call things.

    They like making laws, just laws that enforce their worldview on others.
